Any clue if they will force us to upgrade to the $24.99 plan if we already have, say $19.99 total internet VPN on our account (if buying at discount w/2yr plan)?

I'm probably going on 5 years on this data plan, so I'm hoping they'll take that into consideration (for the better)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vapor:
There is always a choice as many have stated:

1. buy the phone at discounted 2 year contract price and sign up for the plan.

2. buy the phone at full retail and not be forced to sign up for the data plan.

It's not just about recouping the cost of the phone. It's also a business. Thus why they had to change their contract for customers who want to renew/start their contract.

Is it wrong? That's really up to you to decide as to each his own.

I think it's fair since I am getting a discount for something that is subsidized. I choose to sign the contract because I want the discount. If you don't want the data plan, then don't sign the contract.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] scepterr:
The thing is this is meant to impact corp retail stores the most aswell as partner stores, and from personal experience and the numbers I've seen on customer care data plan addon rates within the first week of customers purchasing phones instore there is justification for it. There is also one popular example to draw on, AT&T and the iPhone which had a mandatory data addon from day one. Imagine if the data plan wasn't required on the iPhone, there would have been plenty of first gen buyers who opted out of a data plan. Personally I don't think it would have made as large of an impact on people and the industry.

I need to see if im allowed to post the numbers, if I am I'll update.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bman325i:
No on forced data plans

im sorry but forcing data plans is just too much. i am a college student at Long Beach State and everyday i check my email before i go to class to see if a class is canceled, reminders from professors. For me, the data plan is useless because whene i enter the parking lot of the school wi-fi is available, not only at the parking lot but all through out the school. What is the need for data when you have wi-fi. ( i know that some phones don't have wi-fi capabilities)It will not only enable me to browse the web but also updates email clients and whether and all that good stuff. other than that i dont need the data plan outside school but at home which i also do not need because i have wifi running in the house. but when im on the go. i only use my phone to make calls as well as receive calls. i say we should have the decision whether or not we should add a data plan to our phone. My blackberry does what it needs to do when i get to school, to inform me through email, and when i get bored in class i browse the internet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] atlp99:
Bman,

No one is forcing anyone to get a data plan, it is only mandatory if you want the T-Mobile to subsidize your phone.

At some point you had to have a data plan on the blackberry that you are using now if you are able to browse the web, the data plan is necessary for blackberries to download the service books to make the browser work. Obviously the easy way around this is to put another sim (with the blackberry data service attached) into the phone and then download the service books to the phone. Then the browser will work over wifi.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bman325i:
ive never had any data plan with my blackberry. it worked fine with the wi-fi at home and at school. i was able to receive email and browse the internet

other than that, i really dont think there will be a mandatory data plan needed because it isnt like the new android phones that do require the plan in order for the phone to work, just like the iphone. the touch pro 2 doesnt need data in order for it to work. Maybe some apps such as email, but then again you do have wifi to cover that .
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] atlp99:
LOL, we will see on Wendsday

I'm sure that the TP2 will require a data plan.

We will see Wednesday. :)

Not arguing about it but,

Your blackberry had a data connection at some point in order for the web browser to provision, go to options > advanced options > service book, there will be a listing for BC Internet Browsing Service. This and IPPS for BIBS are the service books for the web browser.

These download the first time that the blackberry is connected to the BIS service (or BES if it is a corporate exchange account). That is why if you take a new blackberry out and start it up without a sim card there is no web browser available, even if connected to wifi. Also the email setup on the blackberry woks the same way, the fact that you were able to set up your email address on the blackberry means that it was connected to data service at least long enough to download the service books and provision those services.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] lucasjohny:
think u using your own menu enhancement think better you build it back to windows cause your menu scrolling not as sensitive as HTC by the way most of our Diam user is using custom ROM which come with new HTC menu enhancement so no need for you to waste time on this. Hope you can release option package soon. By the way I'm having Garmin so can you build it I can navi or view map direct from your application. Anyways thnks keep up...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Gustavmahler:
Hi loffactory,

nice app, thanks for sharing.

I just installed it and have a few questions:

- how do I add a favorite?

- do you know a way to replace the original contact tab in tf3d with your app, or a way to create a new tab for tf3d using your app?

Thanks for your answer!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] BigDedx3:
I tryed the app and it realy very Finger friendly :D

thanks for sharing.

but:( all my contact list written in hebrew.

unfortunately the keyboard inside app, is English only....

is a possibility to change the language to Hebrew? or to use the device's keyboard?

any help master?

thanks, Bigded

Sorry for my bad English
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] loffactory:
My friend, this is a ALPHA version and this app is not only for HTC Diamond!

Best regards...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] loffactory:
Hi Gustavmahler,

To add favorite go to "Contacts Tab" menu and click in "Add to Favorite" menu item.

I am not a expert in TF3D, sorry!

Best regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] BigDedx3:
NO, you can't make a tab in tf3d. but you can do 2 possibility:

1. you can change the the softkey in homepage (left or write) to "loffactory" with "Advanced_Configuration_Tool_v3.3".

2. the another way is to change the left key in the original contact tab (as you prifer :D) to "loffactory" by using "ssmaho" app.

you can find bouth of them hear in xda forum.

Good luck! and I'm sorry for my bad English.

I hope you understend my instruction :cool:

EDIT: ok. i saw your answer down.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] loffactory:
Hi BigDedx3,

The keyboard is not supported yet.

To Change Language:

1 - Translate "English.ecl" file.

2 - Change file name to "Hebrew.ecl" and copy to "\Program Files\Easy Contact\Language" folder.

3 - Use Reg Editor to change language settings: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\LoFFactory\Easy Contact\Settings\".

But what about my suggestions ? :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] waverbob:
Easy Contact and Navigation Control

Thanks for the great app. The last version solved the crash problem.

Can you enable the navigation control for scrolling the contacts in Easy Contact? It's possible in the standard contacts windows app, but I'm not able to use it in Easy Contact. I ask this because it is a very useful option in many situations (for example, with the phone placed on a car mount).

Thank you again

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Hi,

I just tryed this on the new 1.1 version and it didnt work:

first the BG aint skinned:

Then when i went to the menu, the test is missing till the highligh goes over it:

last, i do have the sorrect settings ;):

Any ideas?

Im guessing some of the skin files are missing because when i compaired the default skin files to these there is 11 missing. default skin contains 86 files, yours has 75.

is there a fix for this?

I really hate the white and green skin! is there any way to get this working?

thanks in advance

Hi loffactory,

thanks for your quick response

Uninstall

:

I Uninstalled the last version V1.0 BETA (26-06-2009)

Before that, I uncheck the Options to Default.

I deleted from the sub directory all the old skins & language and the device was clean from the olds app completely.

made soft reset.

Install

:

I install the new V1.1 BETA (28-06-2009)

I didn't change nothings and didn’t install or used another language or skins

I tried to install the app to the storage cards, and also to the main memory and get the same result: the app crash immediately when I'm trying to use the menu

So., What do you think I made wrong and how can I fix the crash?

Best Regards

First of all, thanks for the release of QVGA v1.1 Beta

I found a problem of the graphics of the app.

Secondly, I have a suggestion of the alphabet bar.

If I don't have contacts start with "N", it is better for the list to jump to "O" instead of doing nothing. (assume there is a contact starts with "O"). I hope you can get my idea.
